Improve Your Writing Speed and Productivity

Dark Room is a full screen, distraction free, writing environment. Unlike standard word processors that focus on features, Dark Room is just about you and your text.

Basically, Dark Room is a clone of the original WriteRoom that is an OS X (tiger) exclusive application. It is a child of necessity, as there were no viable alternatives in Windows to produce the same behavior. Sure, you can kind of emulate the behavior by jumping through a bunch of hoops in Word/Writer, but it isn’t the same. Also, you can do something similar in emacs, but who wants to learn a bunch of obscure keyboard shortcuts?

    Kris,

    This is fantastic! I forgot how good the old style screen was and never realised how distracting the newbies are. Last night and this morning I’ve been able to blast through some projects that I’ve been wanting to get done. It was loads easier with Dark Room.

    Thanks for the heads up!

    My question to you is the following..
    Although dark room is efficient in create a “noise” free environment while writing.. IT DOES NOT have the capacity the word does. In any measure at all..
    Why would you ask you “customers” to download this software if they can create a similar enviorment in word?
